The Technicolor nightmare purse

Okay, so I saw this purse and thought, “Well, that’s not really in style or particularly practical, but I love the colors, so I’m buying it, darn it all.”

After all, sometimes fashion doesn’t have to make sense.

Or even fulfill its most basic function, it turns out.

Apparently, I was so dazzled by the pretty pretty colors that I failed to noticed that the purse had been donated due to its lopsidedly dilapidated state.

One side is fine (the only side I saw…or that’s what I’m telling myself), the other is unraveling.

Oh, and the first time I tried to put something in it, I discovered that no only is it possible for a purse this size to (barely) hold nothing more than a tube of lip gloss and a cell phone but that a zipper can literally fall to pieces in one’s hands. Multiple pieces.
